Addison Parlier

Congratulations to Addison Parlier, the Alexander County Schools 2023 Spelling Bee Winner. The 8th grader from West Alexander Middle School spelled vacuousness, profundity, and other tough words to advance.

She won the contest with the word “symmetrical”. Parlier advances to the regional round held at Bank of America Stadium.  

The event was held Tuesday, February 7th at the Alexander Central Auditorium.

Participants included the top two spellers from each elementary school and each middle school in the county.
